I guess there is a hard dependency between "cron with custom user cronjobs" and sendmail. I don't want to break that, and it's probably too late in the cycle for this change anyways. It does suck to have everyone take this startup time hit if they're not using custom jobs, but it's been slow for years, so we can take another cycle of slow. For the next cycle, one possible solution to this is to have cron itself start sendmail if there are custom jobs. The system jobs should on failure be treated as OS component crashes and be handled through the same mechanism as http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/CrashHandling -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
